In AD 256 Ballista survives the eastern frontier only to return to an imperial court shaped by fear, religious conflict and political intrigue. His conduct at Arete has won him fame, but it has also created enemies who question his loyalty and would profit from his removal.
As Shapur I renews pressure on Rome’s eastern provinces, Ballista is drawn into a campaign in which military decisions cannot be separated from court conspiracy. The novel follows the fragile authority of Valerian and Gallienus as the empire attempts to fight Persia without resolving its internal divisions.
